You are correct; it seems to have the faster. I don't know much about the
brand though; its good or bad points. Maybe an owner will respond with

more
details.

ok thanks for that, will stay away from that one.

My second choice is this :

Sparkle GeForce FX 5900 128MB DVI/TV-Out - Retail (GX-047-SP)
The NVIDIA GeForce FX family of GPUs ushers in a new era of graphics
and gaming. With a GeForce FX powering your graphics experiences, you
can run applications and games at higher resolutions and at speeds
never before possible. Whether you're a bleeding-edge gamer who
desires the most advanced gaming technology available, or a PC user in
search of the perfect combination of power, performance, and
value--GeForce FX top-to-bottom solutions deliver.

- NVIDIA GeForce FX 5900
- 400 MHz Core clock
- 128MB DDR memory running at 850MHz
- 256bit memory interface
- 400 MHz RAMDAC

It dosent mention 2.2 or 2.8ns memory but i assume as its memory is
running at 850mhz rather than 700mhz its a better card?

Hi,

I was going to buy this card :

Leadtek WinFast A350TDH LX GeForce FX 5900 128MB DDR TV-Out/DVI as
advertises on the overclockers uk website. Is this a cut down version
of the 5900 chip. It just seems very cheap to me at only £167.00. All
the other 5900 cards are upwards of £200, the ultra costing even more.

On the other hand they sell the leadtek geforce fx 5800 card for
£202.00.

Which one should i go for, bear in mind i only have a athlon xp 2400+
cpu and 512mb pc2100 ddr ram.

regards

paul
